This talk presents MovingPandas, a project that aims to provide general purpose tools for analyzing and visualizing movement data.
There are at least 58 different libraries for tracking data analysis in the R ecosystem alone. Is the Python community going down the same path? Many recently introduced Python movement data analysis libraries focus on specific application domains, be it mobility research, movement ecology, or sports analysis. Many of these libraries build on Pandas, fewer on GeoPandas. There is a lot of overlap but also contrasting ideas and approaches. This talk focuses on MovingPandas, a project that aims to provide general purpose tools for analyzing and visualizing movement data. We'll look at how to get started as well as at recent developments.
